Our Stories...

Manitoba Housing is working with tenants and community organizations to create stronger communities through housing solutions by revitalizing our communities and improving neighbourhoods. Here are some of those stories:

Angry Kids & Stressed Out Parents is a CBC Doc Zone episode that follows children and parents enrolled in three groundbreaking interventions. These programs work with parents and kids to help children master the skills they need to do well in life, like self-control and self-regulation. From middle-class kids to children of poverty, we witness young lives transformed, social problems solved, and billions of taxpayer dollars saved.

The section on positive parenting programs begins around the 10:30 mark and leads into a Manitoba component that focuses on programming at Lord Selkirk Park which begins at about the 20 minute mark.
